# Setup for Challenge ### Prerequisite 0. Prerequisite. Make sure you are using an RTX compatible GPU. We recommend the OS version Ubuntu 18.04/20.04 and NVIDIA driver version 525.60.11. Docker-based setup is not guaranteed to work on other OS or driver versions. We also verified the following driver versions are compatible with isaac sim: ``` 470.141.03 535.113.01 ``` 1. Generate NVIDIA NGC API Key - Log in [NVIDIA NGC](https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/). If you do not have an account, register one and log in. - Generate your NGC API key. You can refer to [Generating API key](https://docs.nvidia.com/ngc/gpu-cloud/ngc-user-guide/index.html#generating-api-key). - Log into the NGC account on the instance ```bash docker login nvcr.io ``` Type `$oauthtoken` for `Username`. Then paste your API key for `Password`. You should see `Login Succeeded`. 2. Make sure NVIDIA container is properly installed. Check [Installation guide](https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/cloud-native/container-toolkit/latest/install-guide.html). ### Docker Setup 1. Download codebase: `git clone` from the `challenge` branch. ```bash git clone -b challenge https://github.com/arnold-benchmark/arnold.git ``` 2. Move to `workspace` and build docker image. ```bash cd arnold/workspace docker build -f Dockerfile -t "arnold" . # if you fail to build docker, you can pull the released one # docker pull nikepupu/vm:arnold_release sudo apt install vagrant vagrant up vagrant ssh ``` ### Download Data and Assets You can download [data and assets](https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1yaEItqU9_MdFVQmkKA6qSvfXy_cPnKGA?usp=drive_link) from web browser or CLI. Unzip the downloaded `zip` files at `/vagrant` folder. * `data_for_challenge_train.zip` for training * `data_for_challenge_val.zip` for the `dev` phase * `data_for_challenge_final.zip` for the `test` phase * `materials.zip` for scene and object materials * `sample.zip` for assets used in ARNOLD ```bash # for example, download from CLI pip install gdown cd /vagrant # data_for_challenge_train.zip gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1gxSW3fFhGghJUpf_jiAy3iR_zrPy_MlJ # data_for_challenge_val.zip gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1diLNQQcOGKEVkgOstkRbagbn_cVCKVIE # data_for_challenge_final.zip gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1XKRxsByOwI_pYh09LUQ5wGLgzeGmL-KH # materials.zip gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1CAT6pZfX0HqHKXU5qBdLeRZl_iY_XfOt # sample.zip gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1jscZWcibfVXItbY1xZxRogA6Q8j3U60C unzip data_for_challenge_train.zip unzip data_for_challenge_val.zip unzip data_for_challenge_final.zip unzip materials.zip unzip sample.zip ``` ### Model Evaluation Please read these two evaluation scripts carefully to understand what happened: ```bash cd /root/arnold/ bash eval_challenge_dev.sh ${checkpoint_file} # for dev phase bash eval_challenge.sh ${checkpoint_file} # for test phase ``` To reproduce the results using the baseline checkpoint: ```bash gdown https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1YuADlTFJZQc3AefULmzhZ9PrCWVjsEU2 bash eval_challenge_dev.sh peract_multi_clip_best.pth bash eval_challenge.sh peract_multi_clip_best.pth ``` The first time starting the Isaac Sim takes long time, approximately 6 minutes (varying to the device configuration). After evaluation is done, the scripts will generate an output folder. Zip the output folder (`/root/arnold/output` or `/root/arnold/output_dev`, depending on the phase) and submit it to `EvalAI` with CLI. ```bash zip -r submission_dev.zip -r /root/arnold/output_dev/ zip -r submission_test.zip -r /root/arnold/output/ evalai challenge 2266 phase 4500 submit --file submission_dev.zip --large --public evalai challenge 2266 phase 4501 submit --file submission_test.zip --large --public ```
